We should evaluate adding an internal optional safety mechanism that prevents Sending the Disarm command over C4 if the panel is already in an active Alarm state, ideally only Burglary Alarm. This would allow HomeKit to normally be used in app to Disarm the system, but require entering a PIN at the panel (or other secured method) to clear the Burglary/Intrusion alarm. It might also be worth having a tuning option that performs this safety lock on Burglary only or All Alarm states, so users can tune this behavior for their own use cases.
Note: Siri on HomePods currently does prevent Disarm by Voice command.
